> Meaning, I'm not sure what the developer was thinking, and at this point, I'm not going to track down exactly who it was and point fingers. As a developer, this sentence made my skin crawl.
What does being 'trustworthy' have to do with anything in this context?
All Thiel is doing is admitting that he has no idea how to innovate further in this area.
And that would necessarily be bad?
Maybe, but it's still full of speculation.
Yeah, it's funny how they think they got some scoop here. It was obviously a concept video. Totally obvious, and not just from what you mentioned, just the look and feel of the whole thing in general.
Care to elaborate? I work in Spain which got Netflix earlier this year and literally everyone in my office got a subscription.
Just wanted to say thanks for all your hard work, it's appreciated by many. Maybe this wasn't the best choice, but missteps happen. Sadly, we'll never know how it might have been dealt with if people were able to take a…
But isn't it just because they show things in development? Apple doesn't do that. And Google has learned a few lessons in that regard too.
It will come. There's no way they're not developing something. There's all the articles about the patents they have and what not. Tim Cook has commented on AR vs VR. But, in typical Apple fashion, they'll announce it…
I can confirm Czech Republic and Spain as both being pretty straightforward and simple, only because I've lived both places and known people who have gone through the processes. I'd be surprised if it wasn't doable and…
No, you're almost always allowed to work while waiting for the visa to be approved (which it will be if everything is in order from the start). In other words, once you have a job offer you can apply for a work visa,…
You have to take into consideration that living in a European country is a lot different -- you're not going to get the same salary you would in San Francisco, for example. The quality of life is different, expenses are…
Not to pick on you specifically, but "Europe" is a pretty big place. The countries are all quite different from one another with different requirements and attitudes, etc. Your best bet, in my opinion, as someone from…
Nah man, I mean, sure it depends what you do, but for example I'm just an iOS developer, I got a job here in Barcelona after a month of searching and more offers after that. They are all just normal companies who need…
I think you've really misjudged me and what I'm saying. I think freedom on the web is more important than hurt feelings and that people ought to have a bit thicker skin in general or else stop making themselves so…
Sorry, SV-oriented?
If you assert that something is a hoax, not merely that you think it's a hoax, you should absolutely be able to prove it. I wasn't ever trying to defend his claim that it's all a giant hoax, I was just jumping into the…
Also, I would add, these are not claims about "everyday racism" -- these are extraordinary claims about Trump supporters suddenly feeling emboldened and harassing people in all manner of public places in terrible ways.
Honestly, I have a hard time putting myself in that mindset, but if I did post it, I certainly wouldn't expect everyone in the world to just believe me.
It wasn't me who said hoax. No matter how likely I believe everyday racism to be doesn't change who should carry the burden of proof for claims about it.
And to further answer your question, no, I personally wouldn't post it to social media, with evidence or without. I have accounts on all the major sites, but I rarely post anything, I'm much more of a lurker. I don't…
I never said a lack of proof necessitated falsity. It simply seems to me that when it's nearly impossible to disprove such claims (it's just someone saying something on the internet), we shouldn't lend them too much…
I never defended the claim that almost all are fake (in fact, I said I'm sure many are true), I'm simply saying there are many times these people have been caught lying about harassment -- and yes, they are SJWs. Like…
I rather think the burden of proof is on those making the claims. Why should we accept any of the reports as true without evidence? Since I can't think of any way to prove that some random person on the internet…
